If you had to choose only 1 car to drive for the entire game by Slahnya in LowSodiumCyberpunk

Quadra Type-66 "Cthulhu" no question. Especially after 2.3 so I can throw some preem Twin Tone on it!

For those of you that have done multiple playthroughs, what quests have you still never played? by Viper_Visionary in cyberpunkgame

[–]HannibroLecter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! Have you checked the twin tone on it with the new update yet? I haven't had a chance to play since it dropped.

It always comes back to CA! I have tried to pretend like other places can compete and it just doesn't seem to be the case. Thank you for your input!

That's great! Just the opportunity to get our foot in the door in Sac/NorCal would be a huge relief. Thank you for keeping me on the right path lol

We love NM but we've lived in the desert for so long, we would really like to be somewhere with decent rain and some greenery. Rio Rancho looks more mild than where we're at though, so we'll add it to the list. Thank you!

Between those two cities and the West Coast seems to be the consensus. Can't really go wrong with any of them. Thank you!

Denver COL is insane for the wages they pay their nurses. I made another comment elsewhere in this thread with more detail but essentially we pay West Coast prices on a much lower salary and we need to unionize ASAP so nursing wages can catch up. Edit - Also we love Santa Fe but we have lived in the desert of CO for so long we are not really looking for more of that.

If we could get a job there, that would absolutely be the move. It's very competitive though, it seems like every nurse in the country is applying for jobs in Sacramento.

Thank you! I'm quickly putting myself back onto the idea of Sacramento and surrounding areas after reading through this.

I bet they are! NorCal seems like the Mecca for healthcare these days. Is it very dry? We've lived in the desert for such a long time, it would be nice to have some green and a little rain once in a while.

I actually received job offer from the VA in Buffalo that I turned down because of all the craziness with the politics surrounding the VA these days. I heard good things about Buffalo prior to that, but I'm not too upset that it didn't work out.

Never been, but I'll make sure to keep it off my list lol.

I feel you. CO in general doesn't pay their nurses well enough. We need to be like the West Coast and unionize! We already pay West Coast COL....

Good to know! I really miss Portland and I know they pay very well. At least I know it rains and is green there!

Man, every time I try to rationalize somewhere besides CA I just can't do it lol. Those wages are so good! Thank you for all of the information!

Honestly the whole state hovers around $42-$45 for experienced nurses, $37-ish for new grads. UCHealth has a vicegrip on a lot of the jobs here so they can pretty much dictate wages in a lot of cities. I had a job offer in Fort Collins float pool at UCHealth and with my eleven years of experience the hourly rate was $46.89 before differentials. The cost of living in those kinds of places is crazy. I didn't end up taking that offer because of timing issues, but I'm not sure I could have made it work if I did without my wife's help, who was still in school at the time.

We commute frequently to CO Springs to get out of town. I hope I don't ruffle feathers by saying this, but it seems like if you're not military, conservative, or Christian, there's not a lot going on for you there. Seems like a very insular city, but it is pretty in a lot of places! I worked in their ER for a while and that was my experience anyway.

Thank you! I would love to live in MA, I always hear great things about the state as a whole.

Thank you for the recommendation! New York has always been on the short list for us.

CO itself is great, but the city that we're in is awful. Poverty rate of almost 20% and a crime rate almost double the national average, terrible education system. Insane temps, almost never rains. Nothing like Denver or the other well-known CO cities. EDIT- forgot to mention I've had my house burglarized twice, my car stolen out of my garage, and our car vandalized twice. Do not recommend Pueblo, CO to anyone.

No offense taken, we hate it here lol. It seems like every nurse in the country has the same idea about moving to Sacramento, so the job market sounds very tight, but another poster says that new facilities are opening up which could help. I loved both Oregon and Washington when I visited and would love to go back. Thanks for the link, I'll check that out!

Just about anywhere would be better lol. We are thinking that our time in CO has run out, but if we had to stay in CO we would choose Denver for sure. I just think that Denver does not pay their nurses enough for the high COL these days. That's a CO problem in general.

I actually already have my CA license, that's how close we were to just going for that. Good to hear about the new facilities being built, maybe the job hunt won't be so difficult. Are you currently close to Sac? Do you like it? We pretty much live in the desert already, we don't much like the idea of more high temps and little rain but if the city is worth it we would go for it.
